The seventh annual Imagine Little Tokyo short story contest will hold a virtual celebration of its winners on Thursday, July 23, at 6 p.m. through the Zoom platform in a free program hosted by the Japanese American National Museum.
The contest is presented by the Little Tokyo Historical Society in partnership with the museum’s Discover Nikkei project.
With noted creative artist and former East West Players arts education director Marilyn Tokuda serving as emcee, actors Derek Mio, Eijiro Ozaki and Tamlyn Tomita will read the winning stories in the categories of English language, Japanese language and youth (18 and younger).
Attendees need to pre-register by going to www.janm.org/events/#23. A Zoom link will then be emailed to them before the program.
